New Delhi: Healthians, health test at-home services provider, announced that it has started doorstep sample collection facilities for Covid-19 in Delhi NCR and Mumbai on Wednesday.

Anyone who suspects that they have been infected or is showing symptoms of Covid-19 can book the test online after seeking doctor's advice and a valid prescription.

According to the company release, the Covid-19 test is priced at INR 4500 as per government capping and the report will be provided to the patients within 48 hours.

“As the situation demands we are ready to launch and right now have capacity of collecting over 200 samples in a day, which can be expanded to around 1500 samples. We are prepared and equipped to scale our testing to the extent necessary," said Deepak Sahni, the CEO & Founder of Healthians.

“We have extended our sample collection services to other private labs that have the testing kits but lack the logistical capabilities. This will help in expanding the testing services which is the key factor in fighting against the infection,” he added.

To help ease the process of online booking and create awareness on coronavirus, Healthians had also launched its chatbot two weeks back.
